We are having problems getting Encapsulated PostScript (epsf) files within another document to print out properly. The parts of the document containing the epsf files appear fine when viewed with the GhostScript interpreter. But when printed out, the epsf files are altered. The specific parts that get altered are these carat (^) symbols that appear over other math symbols. In the laser printout, the carat symbols have been turned into larger V's with serifs. The files that we are having problems with were originally created in MacDraw Pro on a MacIntosh and the variables with the carat symbols were created in Equation Editor and pasted into the MacDraw Pro documents. The MacDraw Pro files were then saved as epsf files and ported over to a network of SparcStations. Then these files were included into LaTeX documents using the epsf style file. When LaTeXed and converted to PostScript files (with `dvips'), the figures originally created in MacDraw appear fine with the ghostscript interpreter. But the laser printer output corrupts the carat symbols to larger V's with serifs. Any suggestions on how to get the laser printout to come out properly? Thanks. --Lucy Pao
